Chapter 191 "Next Year Today" ushered in the premiere

The day after seeing Li Yiran away.

"Next Today", a movie that has been on the hot searches every day, has finally premiered.

Unlike the premiere of "The Later Us" that was aimed at the entertainment industry and media, "Next Today" adopts a unified premiere of all cooperative theaters across the country. This is the courage of Zeng Wentao, the top director of Qinzhou.

Xiao Mo was also invited to attend the premiere. As a collaborator, he stood on the stage with director Zeng Wentao and a group of actors, accepted media interviews and expressed his views on the movie.

Zeng Wentao, the director of "Next Today", belongs to the older generation of Taishan Beidou.

Xiao Mo naturally did not dare to be casual in front of him. He always acted very modest and low-key. When talking about this movie, he also used more conservative and cautious official public relations rhetoric to express his views.

Xiao Mo thought very simply. This is not his home court. A movie as powerful as "Next Today" does not need to be promoted by his traffic. The reason why he can stand here today is that Zeng Wentao admires his younger generation and is willing to introduce him to his colleagues and major capitals in the film and television industry.

He just needs to do what he should do in this position. There is no need to show off or say any shocking quotes. After all, there are so many mistakes that can be said.

"Why are you so low-key today?"

Qin Qin, who was also invited, saw his quiet appearance and said angrily: "You were not so low-key when my movie premiered."

"I respect my seniors."

Xiao Mo glanced at her and said lightly.

"Then you don't have to respect me?"

Qin Qin narrowed her eyes.

Xiao Mo was not afraid of her, but just said casually: "Let's talk about you when you become a trump card. Before becoming a trump card, I won't treat you as a senior."

“…”

Qin Qin was speechless. This guy was just like some banks and was a dish of food.

...

The highly-watched movie "Next Today" is a big deal for the entire Qinzhou entertainment industry.

Not only actors, singers, but also many big capitals are paying attention to it. They all want to know the box office performance of this movie as soon as possible, because it is related to too many things and the interests of all parties.

It is difficult to have a movie that can attract the attention of the entire entertainment industry before it is released, but Zeng Wentao can do it, and everyone thinks it is a matter of peace of mind.

When Xiao Mo attended the premiere, he saw that many giants such as "Glory", "Tianxia", "Jinyang", "Comet" sent senior officials over there. He had to sigh at Zeng Wentao's status and pomp. As a director, it was enough to be considered a regret in his life.

certainly--

Compared to the status of the premiere, Xiao Mo is more concerned about the quality of the movie.

The content presented by a movie for two hours is even those like Xiao Mo who are used to countless classics and high-box masterpieces, who have to say it is really fragrant.

As ace director, Zeng Wentao not only chose scripts, but also had the best vision of writing scripts. Even shooting and editing were all at the "just right". He had a unique style of Zeng Wentao and was loved by most viewers. Xiao Mo was also very admired.

"How much box office do you think this movie can have?"

When watching the movie, Qin Qin sat next to him and watched the entire movie from a professional perspective. She had to say a word of convincing. She was particularly curious about the box office of the movie.

"box office……"

Xiao Mo thought about it for a few seconds and whispered: "Conservatively estimated, it should not be less than 3 billion. If the upper limit is, I think it is around 5 billion-6 billion."

"It's about the same as what I thought."

Qin Qin exclaimed in a low voice: "Teacher Zeng's movie is enough to make 99.99% of her colleagues look up to you."

Xiao Mo didn't say anything, just nodded slightly.

He has now started to come into contact with the film and television industry, and he has roughly known many potential rules in the film and television industry.

Take the director for example.

Ace, gold medal, advanced, intermediate, junior... The classification of these levels was formulated by relevant departments of the Xia Kingdom, but the capital does not look at these.

Compared with grade honors, capital values ​​the specific commercial value of these directors, that is, box office.

The film and television industry has class levels, hierarchy is the way of dividing status, and box office is the way of dividing interests.

Some people pursue the former, and focus on winning awards when making movies, rather than paying much attention to box office.

Some people pursue the latter and never expect to win awards. They shoot movies completely in the purest commercial style and pursue profits.

Of course, there are also people who grab both hands and are very domineering. However, looking at the film and television industry, there are very few who have such skills. Most directors still have to "choose one of two" and eat one bite at a time, walking step by step.

The official status rating is here, clear and transparent.

And the interest levels divided by capitals... that's interesting.

The total cumulative box office, the box office of a single movie, the highest box office, the lowest box office, the return on investment... These are the things that capitals value the most.

Zeng Wentao is hailed as the top director in the industry and the most popular director because of his terrifying return on investment and the previous ones.

The film "Next Today" has the salary of crew members, the actors' pay, shooting costs, prop costs, editing costs, promotion costs, opening songs/theme songs/end songs, etc., all of which are less than 100 million yuan. However, Xiao Mo and Qin Qin analyzed the current market trend and the quality of this movie and believed that the final box office should be around 3-6 billion yuan.

After deducting costs such as theater sharing and tax payment, the final income should be between 1.3 and 4 billion yuan.

The cost is less than 100 million yuan, and the final return is billion yuan. This terrifying return on investment is what capitals flock to.

The reason why Zeng Wentao can attract so much capital is that the entertainment giants such as [Glorious], [Jinyang], and [Tianxia] are very polite to them is because their speed of making money is too terrifying.

According to Xiao Mo's knowledge—

Zeng Wentao's average movie is basically a "small cost" of tens of millions. As for the profit... Zeng Wentao's movies have never lost money, it's just a matter of how much you make, sometimes you make hundreds of millions, sometimes you make more than one billion, or billions.

A giant in the Qinzhou entertainment industry like [Qihuang Entertainment] has an average annual profit of only more than one billion yuan, which is similar to a movie like Zeng Wentao.

"I heard that some time ago, Hou Xiong threw a cup in anger in the office, and was called over by the shareholders and scolded him."

Qin Qin whispered.

“…”

Xiao Mo thought about it, but also felt incredible: "Just because of the competition for the promotional song "Next Today" has failed? Isn't it?"

“As for.”

Qin Qin whispered: "[Qihuang Entertainment] In the past few years, we have focused on developing the traffic monetization system, so we are a bit unsatisfied in the incubation of top actors, and you should know that.

They are now eager to establish relationships with top directors and train a few powerful actors to compete for actors and actresses. Otherwise, it will be difficult for them to consolidate this part of their resources and will be taken away by several other giant companies.

However, all the top directors are rich and difficult to be deceived by interests, so they can only find ways to get along well. Fang Jinghui wrote a song for "Next Today" in the name of [Glorious Entertainment], just to get along with Zeng Wentao, but the result is..."

“…”

Xiao Mo was speechless. He thought it was just a "small transaction" of more than 10 million, but he didn't expect that there were still these things in it.
